Newcastle United have completed the sale of Florian Lejeune to Alaves. The 30-year-old spent last season on loan with the La Liga side and leaves after four years on Tyneside. The centre-back has signed a three-year contract with the northern Spain side.
A Newcastle United club statement read: ”Florian Lejeune has completed a permanent move to Alavés – where he spent last season on loan – for an undisclosed fee.”
The club’s official Twitter account said: “We thank Florian Lejeune for his efforts, both on and off the pitch, throughout his time at the club and wish him well for the future.”
